Very often, the most prone to ‘cancer stripes’ are thumbs, big toes and index fingers, but exceptions happen, that is why you should not merely rely on statistics.

They say, once you are aware of something you can easily fight it off. The same goes with cancer, if you detect it soon enough, the worst what you can end up with will be removed nail and some cancer-affected tissue, sometimes it takes a tip of your finger or toe to be amputated, but that is far better than the worst outcome there is - death.
